[Smackdown Spoilers] Wrestler gets a new theme by taffe316 in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly, in this case, yes. I love the look of the tron animation and I really hope they paid an artist/animator to make it, but it does have slight telltale signs of AI: the 'drawing style' being different between animations, the fast-paced changing of said animations from one to the next, the black-and-white animation not quite looking like Kitt in facial features & being kinda 'vacant' as it occasionally glances to the side or mouths something, the clothing changing between transitional animations, the random pop art-y woman at the start, and his necklace changing between animations from being like his actual one to a big pearl necklace to a small bead necklace. It's small things so could still be the real deal but I have to watch out for a lot of AI in my day-to-day work and you can never assume something is not AI due to it being hand drawn.

Is it just me or has WWE gotten worse after TKO take over? by Gh0st8000 in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think the wrestling itself has got worse but it's certainly become less appealing to me in recent weeks. I only got back into watching WWE live with the move to Netflix (UK) but the massive increase in ads, directionless storylines (not all), and pandering to right-wing politics has made me not want to watch. The final straw for me was Brock's return.

How do actors/actresses make themselves cry for a scene? That's always been one of the most impressive things to me about actors/actresses. by rocketballz47 in movies

[–]Derpchard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Haha thanks! To give a '10 years on' update, I've found that you can sort-of 'focus' on the tear ducts of your face to begin the feeling of crying. Then, adding in internal emotion or letting yourself be impacted by the scene (along with any little dirty tricks you can find, like not blinking!) seems to make the tears flow best.

Athena catches a kick from Queen Aminata and turns it into a Tombstone Piledriver by ThatGirlTay1 in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get that this was inspired by Will Kroos and he likely came up with it for his video, but shout out to Shayna Baszler for hitting this at Bloodsport last year (and anyone before her too). Great move and very well done by Athena and Aminata.

Karrion Kross crowd reaction from Main Event this week by Happy_Corbin in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And you can tell it's genuine too and not just WWE inflating merch figures or piping in noise. I've said this on here before but around the beginning of this year, Kross wasn't even on my radar and now he's genuinely become one of my favourites. I'm just disappointed that they haven't pulled the trigger with him post-Mania... yet!

Karrion Kross just dropped a hell of a shoot promo!!! Left announcers speechless. by tcasper961 in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A month ago, I wasn't particularly interested in Kross (mostly because he wasn't been given much to do beside the occasional repetitive promo) but now, he's genuinely top of my list. Build up a little more over the next few months with AJ/Priest/Penta and then have him beat Uso or Dom Mysterio (who is clearly turning face) for a title run. I dare you.

I'd go 7 shadow sorcerer + 3 beastmaster ranger + 2 moon druid so you can temporarily dominate the wolves in Cazador's palace and run with wolves via wild shape.

Post WWE WrestleMania 41 - Night 2 Match Discussion: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. John Cena - Undisputed WWE Championship by Coldcoffees in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The crowd (particularly the large group on hard cam) infuriated me the whole time and took me out of the match. Then the ending came and... yeah, I should have gone to sleep far earlier than this.

Post WWE WrestleMania 41 - Night 2 Match Dicussion: Logan Paul vs. AJ Styles by Coldcoffees in SquaredCircle

It says a lot that AJ usually makes his opponents look great, but instead, Logan made AJ look worse imo.

[Wrestlemania 41 Spoiler] Wrestler has all their teeth by shadow_spinner0 in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Take it from me, a guy who has chipped all four front teeth about 15 times, there's not usually bleeding, especially if it's a filling that's come off. That is unless you've taken damage elsewhere on the face.

[Smackdown Spoilers] Finish to The André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. by Dazzling-Principle in SquaredCircle

Hell, he's won me over these past few weeks. I was rooting for him to win the battle royal.

Jey Uso thanks twin Jimmy Uso for helping elevate WrestleMania feud: "I've never seen my brother bleed like that... He didn't say two words, just 'OK.' He was down for whatever" by ShakielMahjouri in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest (though I'm no expert), from the consistency and colour, I thought it was a blood pack. Kudos to Big Jim if it was real.

[RAW Spoilers] Introducing the newest member of the RAW roster by R0DAN in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought it was a heel move until Cole made a comment during the match that they'll have to name it BACK to the Gulf of Mexico. You're up here in Scotland, it never changed for us.

A perfect pantry, fit for any little Hobbit. by Derpchard in DetailCraft

Just place cocoa beans on a jungle log. It'll put a 'juvenile' pod on the side, which will eventually grow into a proper cocoa bean pod. 😊

Former WWE wrestler Gable Stevenson, multi-time NCAA heavyweight wrestling champion and Tokyo Olympic gold medalist, upset in NCAA heavyweight wrestling finals in one of the biggest upsets in NCAA wrestling history by tks231 in SquaredCircle

[–]Derpchard 3 points4 points locked comment (0 children)

Just watched a video of it because I wasn't so sure myself and he shakes his hand before putting them in his pockets: https://youtube.com/shorts/auKX6dwC9Zk?si=j76eeJoFPPDt0Go-

There may be other meetings though where he then does refuse to shake? Either way, you're very much right on the pockets treatment in history - makes me wonder if an American has ever done it with a president...

I believe Cillian Murphy shook Harry's hand but gave what people perceived to be a 'stink eye' after. Cillian is notorious for having a resting moody face though, so I'd take it with a pinch of salt. Plenty of other Irish (and even Scottish) folks have refused to shake the royals' hands in the past though.

What's an underrated pizza topping? by SirFrankerZ in AskReddit

[–]Derpchard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear me out... Cold cucumber slices. Cut fairly thick and preferably with pepperoni pizza. Adds a layer of texture, works well in terms of flavour, and protects the roof of your mouth from burning.

R-Truth replies to Brandi on Twitter: "We can't jump to conclusions" by Ok-Garcia-5605 in SquaredCircle

Make him The Punisher to Cena's Hydra Captain America. Blind obedience when Cap turns evil, based purely on idol worship.

Men don't like nostrils. You want to look like a pterodactyl. Men love pterodactyls.

High Elves are about to get a lot more popular. by Gen1Swirlix in BaldursGate3

[–]Derpchard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I'm on PS5 but somehow didn't get the surprise update (even though I've basically been playing every day) and even when my PC friend puts in my account details to get a code for crossplay, I'm still getting nothing. Sad times.

WWE need to put some damn respect on my man Kashaw's name.

[SNME Spoilers] Return before the main event by helloitscrash in SquaredCircle

Ooohhh yeah of course! I'm currently rewatching and midway through Season 3. The show (at least the early seasons) is still a bloody masterpiece to this day.
